keep in mind that when you do finally get the new codex, you can't have a heavy weapon or 2nd special weapon option unless the squad numbers a minimum of 10 chaos marines...
also, why spend 110pts on a non-scoring dedicated transport?! just stick to extra armour + smoke launchers... perhaps a dozer blade if you expect to drive through alot of cover quite often!
finally, consider the fact that chaos termies can now take a pair of lightning claws! my perfered set-up under the new codex would typically be;
- champ w/pair of lightning claws
- termie w/heavy flamer & chainfist
- 2x termies w/pair of lightning claws
- 2x termies w/combi-plasam & power fists
a nice little deep striking unit which will hold out against most opponents and has solid combat abilities between re-rolls & S8 hits.
cheers!
